Emily I love how you are not a makeup snob and willing to try items that people regard as "bad" because they aren't found at Mac or Sephora

I know this is an older video, but even now you're just as down to earth. You will forever be my favorite youtuber. Would LOVE to see an update on this!!

She should update this video.

You're awesome! I agree that other bloggers can be snobs with the sponge tip applicators. or stuck on the same brands, love your drugstore makeup reviews 😍

I have a few eyeshadow quads from E.L.F. and they ARE A-MAZING!! This is coming from a NARS junkie!! Luv the videos!!

emily you are the sweetest! by far favorite beauty guru i feel like youve always been the one trying to help us save some money. beautiful & practical

I stumbled on Sheer Red by NYC before I started watching your videos, and I agree. It's awesome! It was what convinced me that I could wear red lipstick.

I agree with the applicators! They are so underrated! They're great for not only applying shadows, but also smudging out eye liner or contouring. It just makes it a lot more simpler having a small applicator that comes with the product rather than trying to dig in a brush collection trying to find a smolder brush.

I SO agree about the foam applicators! It makes me upset that if you use them, you're kind of "looked down upon", if you know what I mean. Unless you have super expensive brushes, they work a lot better for applying than most brushes.

I love spongetips for packing shadow on the lids.. They work so great.

I'm happy to see Claire's eyeshadows here. I use them too and love it! Bought a huge pallette for $8.

I recently found your channel & am so glad I did! The videos have taught me so much already & I Love that you're not all about crazy expensive make-up & skin care! ♡

I know this is a really old video but after watching it for the first time yesterday, I went to Claires and discovered their BRUSHES are amazing!! You should check them out :)

I love this video! Thank you for reviewing products from such a variety of lines and price points!

PLEASE UPDATE THIS VIDEO EMILY!!!!! (: (:

Avon has some awesome products also that know one ever talks about.

I love to watch your videos and learn about your wise products advices. I have been trying some of them and you are right! Thank you for taking the time and help us find good stuff at affordable prices. Great!!!

Good for you, Emily! I appreciate how candid and honest you are. How refreshing!!

You should do a video about unexpected uses for different things. Like using a toothbrush to exfoliate lips or those round cotton things for applying powder. Also, off-label uses for cosmetics (lipsticks as blushes, powders for hair... etc lol) that'd be cool!. Or makeup emergency solutions! That's be great.

i am so glad you said what you did about the sponge tip applicators. I dont wear a lot of makeup so I often look at videos to see which supplies I need and lately I have been feeling as though I need a set of brushes. I'll stick to the applicators that come with the shadows and see how that works for a while. Thanks for the tips!!

I feel the same about the tapered crease brush. I got one in a set of face brushes(?) and I was amazed.

the store icing (which is like claires but for teenagers or adults) carries some really nice makeup brushes and makeup that are pretty inexpensive :3

Thank you for this!!! You are sooo right about Cover Girl, btw. Even within the last 2 years, I've noticed a marked improvement on the shadow formulas and pigmentation.

I absolutely love you. Is so great to find a makeup guru who isnt all about the super pricey makeup. When you were talking about the sponge tip applicators, I was so happy because your so right.. a lot of people are just too good to use them. I have makeup brushes that I love, but the sponge tips sometimes are just the thing to do the job well!! Thank you EMILY!!

I love, love, love this video!!! keep 'em coming. I really enjoyed this.

The sponge tip applicators are so underrated (I keep and still use them). I've heard great things about Claire's I must get there. Great video btw.

Just picked up several Claire's eyeshadows, and they are amazing. Thanks for the tip, gonna look for E.L.F next.

Love this video thanks for showing the love for the forgotten but good products.I always think you should have some of those sponge tip applicators, they do great for the area where we brighten the inner corner ,

Thank you for doing this video. I will definitely try some of these products, especially the eyeshadows. Do more of these type of videos.

I absolutely LOVE the Essence of Beauty crease brushes! I heard about them from you and went out and bought them and I have seriously used them every time I've applied eyeshadow ever since. I really could not do without! I also love the Jordana lipgloss in Lovely! One of my favorites if not my alltime favorite lipgloss of all time! You are by far my favorite beauty guru on KZread :)

I've tried countless foundation brushes but the one i really liked is from Claire's! It has a smaller brush on the other end for concealer and it's super high quality! The only Claire's product I don't like it the little palette of glitter shadows, they're pretty much loose glitter in a substance that feels like petroleum jelly and creases a lot.

Thank you sooo much for making this video! yup everyones so focused on mac makeup and all that. they dont even see how great other brands can be!!!!!! im REALLY impressed and i absolutly adore you and your enthustiastic attitude! thank you soooooooo much !!!!!

I agree with you about the sponge-tipped applicators! I keep all mine and use them to apply my highlight color under my brow and on the inner corner, because it packs on color better than any brush I own!

Love your simplicity & Love your down to earth , honest videos :)

Great video, as always!! I saw all those palettes at Claire's the other day when I went and wanted to get them, but didn't thiink they would be pigmented, but I'm deff going back and getting them!!

Yes , Claire's nail polishes are wonderful also !! and they go on mark down all the time also, my 1st teenage makeup experiance was with Cover girl and I still use those same colors 30+ yrs later have bought them many times over ! I need to pick that brush duo up asap! THX

I love your videos! You are so honest and I love that I can trust your opinion. You are very down to earth and not fake whatsoever. Thank you and keep up the great work.

She is. I agree. Kathleen Lights and Jaclyn Hill are the same way. :-)

Amazing video!! You're awesome!! Thanks for sharing. I have those lip gloss from elf and they're great! They last longer than my nars lip glosses. great texture too..

Thank u so much for this video....i will def b lookin into some of these that I jave overlooked! do more of these pls as u discover more products!

I love using the sponge applicators. I also wore Cover Girl makeup as a young teen when I first starting using makeup. I also like the Bonne Bell Lip Lites (I have Cream Pop which is a shimmery bubble gum pink color). I will definately be checking out the Claire's shadows. Thanks!

I love this video! Since I started watching your tutorials a few months ago, I've gotten more open minded about trying drugstore products and there are definitely some gems out there.

I love this video... Not just because of the products but because of the POINT. It's so true about the sponge tipped applicators. They really do put color on very well. When it comes to blending and things like that then yeah most people would grab a brush but as far as just putting on color, they do just that! Thank you for making such awesome videos!

i love the mary kay loose powder! it was the first powder I used, but eventually grew into more powder. it really was a great find! glad to hear someone else loving it too!

Thanks! I will definately give some off these products a try. It always helps to hear it from someone who has tried the product!

I love the fact that you use a wide array of makeup. You do tutorials featuring drugstore and high end. That opens up possibilities for all of us! Thank you for sharing.

Thank You!!! It is LOVELY to see a beauty guru talk about drugstore products!! everyones so focused on high end this and high end that, when some drugstore products can do the job just as well at a fraction of the cost!! :)

What a cracking video! I have bought some of the products you have mentioned in other videos and have to say you give excellent advice! I use some of the products you have mentioned on a daily basis and absolutely love them. I follow you here as well as FB. I actually look more at different brands of drugstore make up since watching your videos. Have to say thank you for advice and please keep the videos coming!

Awesome video! This is the first time I have watched a you tube video and actually use the products mentioned!

I use my sheer red with allot of other red lipsticks as well. Great video and thanks for all the swatches.

I loved this video. I too LOVE the drama ELF quad. The colors are not only really pretty but they blend awesome!

I absolutely LOVE this channel! If I could I wound subscribe a million times!!!!!!!! I love listening to you talk! I actually feels like you care about your subscribers! Your are definatley my FAVORITE channel ever since the first video I watched! Thank You sooooooo much!

Great job Emily and thank you sooo much for all of your valuable information.. Keep up the great work! You are apppreciated so much..

I loooove the Bonne Bell Lip Lights. I have used Mocha Mousse since high school, and have gone through at least 5 tubes of it. I really like that it is not shimmery at all. It is just a beautiful creamy lipgloss. Smells amazing and is wonderfully pigmented. I rave about this all the time!

I bought the nyc bronzer in sunny a few months back,And I reallllly like it! I also bought the wetnwild bronzer in Reserve your cabana that you recommended,And I really like it to! Thank you for getting them out there and letting other women know about them!

I agree! i loooovee claires eyeshadow!

I love watching you! Your really smart and seem to know alot about makeup but your still down to earth and review mannyyy products. :)

Emily you are simply great. I love how fresh you are and how you can also appreciate the cheaper options and tell us about them. Thank you for every video!

I loved this video! I've never tried e.l.f. before (mainly because I can't seem to find them in any store) and I can't wait to try these products out!

I completely agree with you on everything! Especially the eyeshadow brushes. I absolutely love them! I love the pointy tip. They are amazing! I love covergirl eye shadows! If you haven't tried shimmering sands you definitely should! They are shimmery of course but they are gorgeous!

i love your videos. you have to be the best beauty guru, down to earth and soooo helpful! thank you so much! so happy that i found you!

im going to cvs tomorrow and im so glad you brought up the crease brushes! im going to look for them tomorrow :) they look wonderful.

soooooo helpful (: should definitely do an updated one of this vid sometime ! i'm so considering these products!

i love your attitute so much. you always try to search and show your subs good products that do not cost the world. you are always honest and so lovely to your subscribers. thank you!

I have the elf lip gloss in candlelight too!... I agree... its amazing!

I totally agree with you on Claire's eyeshadows and the Essence of Beauty brushes. I actually got the brushes because of you and I use them every day!

you're my favorite guru because you're one of the only ones who are so down to earth! you dont make your viewers seem like they HAVE to have high end products to have a good makeup collection! so thank you for that :) and i definitely agree with your video. also, i have those essence of beauty brushes and i love them as well, work so great!

I love the Claire's eyeshadow :) got two in purple/pink tones and orange/gold tones. They're amazing!

Absolutely love the Essence of Beauty crease brushes!!

I use covergirl eyeshadow every day, I use a quad with brown shades and I'm totally in love with it!

What a fantastic video! Thanks for all these super affordable shopping ideas!

i LOVE the Bonne Bell LipLites! They're my favorite lip glosses ever!

More videos like this please! I loved it!!!

Love this video it's so nice to have someone rave about cheap alternatives, just because it's cheap some people feel that it's below them but they are missing out thanks again.

thanks for this,you're right I haven't heard anybody used Mary Kary products.I have used their foundation and it was good. I have also used Almay blemish free foundation,works good on my skin.

I soooo agree on the sponge tip applicators. I find they come in especially handy with eyeshadows that aren't as pigmented as they should be, then the sponge tip really picks up more colour than any brush.

wow! The Claire's shadow has improved! I had thrown out my old palette a couple days ago because all the colors were very light when applied (black, white, blue, all very just too light and shimmery). Your swatches were MUCH more pigmented. Thanks! :)

You are so honest with your vids, thanks so much, stay well!!

I agree with you, I absolutely love the Claire's mini palettes. I didn't expect such pigmented eyeshadows for such a small price!!

thanks so much for the video..I have been looking for crease brushes like those forever, I'm stopping at cvs tomorrow! Thanks!

Thanks for sharing these wonderful tips and products on beauty makeup. Keep it up!

I only started using NYC sunny because of you Emily & I love it!! Update video of this please!!

Great vid ♥ Gorgeous as always!!! Love elf and Jordana!!! Love the pretty shine lippies!!! I love my NYC lippies, I got mine at the Dollar Tree. I must buy that red!!!

Thank you for the tips! I'm so looking in to e.l.f and I definitely agree with you on cover girl eyeshadow! :)

I love the essence of beauty crease brushes so much!! When we´ve been to the US last year I went for Walgreens the first night to get them and the rest of the holiday I only used these for the crease/under eye work. The small one is much more precise than my MAC 219 and the larger one is applying and blending the crease color at the same time, it´s what I wanted the MAC 226 to be. Now I have to add some more items to my US order wishlist!

love it the way you have brought these products out.... and youre so right mary-kay..is a product ive never heard of on youtube... but its so great... love da video keep up it up!! xoxo

Just checked out some of your videos & I gotta tell ya... I'm really glad I did cause they are amazing! I'll definately be looking into these products! You gotta a new subbie!

i have one of those claires pallettes and complely agree! i got it when i first started doing makeup, and was so suprised with how great the pigmentation is! my friends are such snobs about it and because its from claires they think it automatically sucks, but they dont and they are really in expensive!

YAY! I'm happy that you mentioned the Mary Kay loose powders! They work amazingly, not just for everyday stuff, but for theater make up as well. They're so long lasting and stop the shine whenever I go on stage. I also use them for everyday looks too, since my skin can get kinda shiny just from the sun. Thanks for mentioning this, again.

My favorite Go to eyeshadow for my lid is minx by CG...it is sooo pretty when you put a shadow base underneath!!! I think it is GREAT that you made this video...its hard to find makeup products that you can buy on a budget!! Cudos to you for a GREAT video!

I love your video's! You help me navigate the drugstore and create a highend look at a drugstore price. Thank you for your dedication to your viewers!!

Cover girl was the first eye shadows I used when I started with makeup. I agree with you about Essence of Beauty brushes. I have the double ended set. I don't have these two. May pick them up.

You're realy unique person! So informative, honest in your recommendations! You're the only one I take advise from and it's always work! Thank you for doing such great job! :)

I literally JUST bought a Claire's eyeshadow palette yesterday before seeing your video, and you're so right. I had bought it because it was a cheap palette to pop the colors out to use the actual plastic palette, but I was SHOCKED at how pigmented the colors were. I got the big 72-color palette, and it's surprisingly awesome!

great video! thanks so much! i totally agree with u on some of the products..ive tried them and they're amazing! That ELF drama quad, i reach for it ALL the time even thou i have so many high end smokey eye palettes and mac eyeshadows..it's just so easy and has everything u need for a smokey eye, throw it in your bag and ur good to go :)

i love that you put videos up frequently :) thank you

love your videos, I feel I get a sense of the most honesty and realness from you then any other makeup guru on youtube

omg love this video :) can you pleeease do an awesome eye tutorial on the claires eyeshadows.. i almost picked some up but i was worried they weren't any good!

This video is a few years old and still fantastic. I really enjoyed it. Thanks so much EmilyNoel83.

I agree about the sponge tip applicators. They can be very useful, especially placing shadow on the lower lashline. Sometimes brushes just give you too much fallout and waste alot of product. Lots of times I use the sponge to apply and then use a brush to blend out. The Claire's pallets are magnificent! I have about 6 or 7 of those! love them! :)

I adore the sheer red lipstick by NYC! It's one of my favorite lip products. It's quite moisturizing too, which is nice.

I agree, those sponge tip applicators are great for packing on eyeshadow. They're not so great for blending, but still a very underrated tool. I actually used those exclusively for years when I was younger before I had ever heard of eyeshadow brushes lol.

Hi Emily, one of my favorite makeup products thanks to ur revews is the Milani Liquif'eye eyeliner!!! I don't need to surch for any other pencils but that one. Works great!!!!
